Winestyr Review

This Pinot from the Russian River Valley is similar to its Sonoma Coast counterpart and they're great to taste side by side. This wine has more fruit but still maintains those earthy, rustic, and elegant notes that I'm already starting to love from Chasseur's Pinots. The French oak - 50% new from Tonnelerie Sirugue in Nuits-Saint-George, France - gives this wine a wonderful Burgundian presence but it's still cool weather Sonoma in soul. Another great wine from Chasseur.

Chasseur Wines

Chasseur (French for "Hunter") is dedicated to small lot, hand-crafted wines in the old French tradition with emphasis on vineyard designates. Their small size (about 2,700 cases per year) allows complete control over the winemaking process, enabling them to produce the finest wines the fruit has to offer. They are in an obsessive pursuit of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay's final, and possibly finest, frontier - Sonoma's "West County". Still in its renaissance, this area is composed of the western edge of the Russian River Valley and beyond, known as the "true" Sonoma Coast. The wines are as expressive as they are stunning. Burgundy lovers won't want to miss Chasseur.
